GIRL MONSTER
ANTHOLOGIES GENERALES
- Ref. X 339D
- CHICKS ON SPEED RECORDS COMPAC, 2006.
Bien trop souvent considéré comme un terrain de jeu mâle, le monde de la pop s'est longtemps débattu entre l'image de la femme-robot (« fembot »), récitante obéissante de producteur pygmalion (Phil Spector, etc.) ou celle de la femme-monstre, concentré de secrétions envahissante et de libido vorace. Soit la paire Kylie Minogue/Lydia Lunch, deux figures tutélaires inspirant de loin le contenu de 'Girl Monster', une généreuse compilation qui, sur 3 cds, détaille divers aspects du rock réapproprié par les femmes depuis l'avènement du punk et qui, pour le coup, se la joue aussi cultural studies, avec quelques essais et textes polémiques à l'appui. Bien entendu, une telle profusion ne nous épargne pas quelques ânonnements de rrriot-girlism electro-clash, label des Chicks On Speed oblige. Mais, de la gracile inventivité des Raincoats à la fausse ingénuité pop de Françoise Cactus, 'Girl Monster' abonde en jolies surprises et nous aurions tort de faire la fine bouche.
"Sixty-one tracks deep and sprawled over three CDs (two thirds of which is exclusive), this new compilation from the Chicks On Speed stable is a vibrant cross-section of what's what in the world of leftfield female music - cramming the likes of Bjork, Gudrun Gut, Le Tigre, Cobra Killer, Ana Da Silva and The Slits into the same catalogue number. Spanning the decades, 'Girl Monster' has appearances from the 1970's onwards - providing a relatively coherent vision that calls on punk, electro, avant-garde, pop and rock, and features a vast set of liner notes that seem like a music lover's notice-board. Picking things to discuss seems a little pointless given that there's nearly four hours of material harking from a spectrum of origins... but we'll give it a go anyhow. Starting with CD 1, a brief intro gives way to the buzzing electro rush of Scream Club featuring Peaches, sounding much like you'd expect a song called 'Fine As F*ck' to, before Le Tigre pop up on the sloganeering 'Hot Topic'. Blasting through, Barbara Morgenstern judders away on 'Mountain Place', Ana Da Silva gets all ethereal on 'Full Moon', The Slits get low-slung on a live version of 'Typical Girls'..." www.boomkat.com
